Should I make an insurance claim for the roof
Recently a neighbor recorded a video of our roof shingles of our rental property blowing up and cleverly put it to music during a wind storm. We know we are due for a new roof and had it on the schedule for next year. We now also have internal water damage. Is this something we should call and make an insurance claim for or will they likely say our house was due for a new roof? We are unsure what to do. We don’t want our insurance rates to go up but this is much more damage than we ever anticipated.
